OAEC Summer Camp_Dance Creative Workshop by Shoey Sun

Shoey Sun started dancing since the age of 9 training in traditional Chinese folk dance and ballet. She went to college with the intent of graduating with honors and going to one of the top law schools in the country. She has since then discovered, in these past years, that dancing is something she loves

and wants to pursue as a career. As an up-and-coming dancer and choreographer, she has been featured as a dancer in Motivating Excellence Season 2: Instinct by Rhapsody James, NuDance Festival, Carnival New York, Sybarite: Love is Love, MTV New Years Eve: Mac Miller, and many others. Shoey has also been featured as a choreographer in the most recent Sirens After Dark Showcase presented by Rhapsody James. She has also performed internationally in Shanghai for the Children's Festival under J&L Dance Company, as well as performing in several other Chinese dance events. At year of 2011, Shoey joined OAEC Chinese Culture and Dance Delegation to share her dance of beauty in Shenzhen and Beijing.

As a teacher, she has taught workshops to various companies in New York and New Jersey and has had the honor of teaching the established Funkanometry Company class in San Francisco.

Recently, Shoey joined the newly established R.E.D (Rhapsody En Dance) company under the direction of Rhapsody James (Beyonce, Madonna, Britney Spears, Motivating Excellence, Monster of Hip-hop).  As a dancer who has no idea how to categorize her style, she believes that sometimes dancing should not be defined, rather it should be felt. She hopes to share through her movement and choreography that the "know-how is not very valuable without know-what and, more important, know-why; and more important still, feel-why" - Tyrone Guthrie.
